Overview

• D.J. Chark was released by the Falcons on August 18, 2025, less than a month after signing a one-year contract
• He recorded one reception for 11 yards in his only preseason game against the Titans
• The move marks his fourth departure from an NFL roster since leaving the Jaguars following the 2021 season
• Chark’s production has fallen sharply since his 2019 Pro Bowl campaign, with recent seasons hampered by modest outputs and a hip injury
• On the same day, Atlanta also waived quarterback Emory Jones and added veteran Ben DiNucci to bolster its quarterback depth
